You can respond with any kind of greeting from a formal, "Hello", a non-committal, "Hey", and so on. You can also tell them what you are currently doing. If you feel uncomfortable doing that, say "nothing much, you?"
If he says something like "you're the prettiest!" I'll just say "Am I?!" "Yiss." "Thaaaaaanks!" But you have to say it like this. Or if he greets me "Hey pretty lady!" I'll say "Hey handsome!" I blush, smile and just say thank you or call him a doofus.
Answered Jan 3, 2019. Say what you mean , means you should speak your words with power. Speak your truth and really say what you feel. Mean what you say is not being an hypocrite, once said , assume your words as your truth. It's also a circle,if you say what you mean, you can mean what you said .
"What say you?" "What say you?" is an odd construction. It's used to ask someone "what do you think about this?" It is certainly not as >common as "What do you say?" or "What do you think?" or "What is your opinion?" - but it is idiomatic English. It is old-fashioned and appears mostly in spoken English these days.

Irony is "the use of words to convey a meaning that is the opposite of its literal meaning." Likewise, if I say something to you intending you to understand it one way, even though I mean it another way, I am speaking ironically. Sarcasm usually employs irony and a very nasty sneer.

figuratively/ literally
Figuratively means metaphorically, and literally describes something that actually happened. If you say that a guitar solo literally blew your head off, your head should not be attached to your body.“Frigging,” previously profanity in its own right, lost both its edge and its original meaning and became wholly acceptable as an anodyne substitute for a completely different swear word. “By the mid-20th century it's become a minced oath, so it's not considered offensive anymore, really,” says Bergen.
SHH is EXTREMELY rude. There are many better ways to ask someone to be quiet. For example, if I was trying to listen and I couldn't hear over someone, I would say "excuse me, I'm trying to listen." Didn't your mothers every tell you to use your words?!!

Shut up. The phrase is probably a shortened form of "shut up your mouth" or "shut your mouth up". Its use is generally considered rude and impolite, and may also considered a form of profanity by some.
Shut up is a rude way to tell someone to stop talking. It can also be used an as exclamation of amazement or excitement.
What's up is an informal greeting (“Hey, buddy, what's up?”), idiomatic phrase, or an inquiry about a current or recent state of affairs (“You seem sad.
By the 20th century, shut up, while widely used in all sorts of squabbles, had become considered a very childish, impolite, or angry-sounding command—depending on tone and context, of course.
